What an incredible location! A bird photographers dream! Your images are all stunning and this video was packed with well explained, helpful information. Thank you - we look forward to the next video! -Jody & Chris
Just a heads up- the bird you labelled a pectoral sandpiper is actually a red knott. The pectoral sandpiper is a annual vagrant from North America- it looks like a small ruff😊- with a ruff like bill. Also the plovers in flight are common ringed- note extensive white on supercilium (eyebrow). The bird you labelled little ringed plovers in the portrait section are also common ringed plovers- just juveniles. Not the thick bills, white supercilium and overall chunky structure.
Thanks for watching. I'm very jealous - I love Norfolk and do a lot of my photography there. There's lots of beautiful areas around you - Holkham is great for birds in general, along with Titchwell Marsh. I've taken photos of waders really close up on the harbours at Burnham and Wells. And you've got lots of great woodlands around Sandringham. Another tip for you is a much under-rated location called Dersingham Bog - it's great for a variety of owl species over winter.
Hi Scott, many thanks for this great video! Your photographies are so beautiful! And I like very much how you explain and describe the behaviour of the birds. Kind regards, Silke
Bonjours, je suis abonné à votre chaîne depuis peu de temps et je pense avoir vu la majorité de vos reportages. Très agréable à regarder et de précieux conseillent qui complètent les connaissances acquises au fil des années, bravo et encore merci. Je réside de l'autre côté de la Manche sur les plages de Normandie. Didier Airés
Salut Didier. Merci pour votre gentil commentaire et pour votre abonnement. J'espère que les traductions vous conviendront. Il y a un beau littoral et quelques belles falaises en Normandie. J'espère que vous y trouverez de belles photos. Je suis très heureux d'avoir des nouvelles des téléspectateurs français - j'aime beaucoup la France et j'espère y faire un voyage pour voir mon neveu français au printemps. (Et aussi prendre des photos de votre faune pendant que j'y suis). Merci d'avoir regardé.
Thank you so much for inspiring me back into wildlife photography. I've been frustrated with my photos lately, but your videos really make me want to get back into it. Your tips are very helpful and you explain everything with passion and excitement. Your videos are so easy and fun to follow. I'm very happy I found your channel.
Hi Sonia. Thank you so much, that's really nice to hear. We all get a bit frustrated in wildlife photography from time to time. I find it quite useful to try something new - a new subject or a new style and to see what I come up with, and that normally gets my motivation back. Thanks for watching and for your lovely comment.
This was so interesting that I watched it twice in a row!! Super footage and amazing photos - and as always, great tips to help improve our photography. Thank you for this.
Amazing shots. The informations to get so cool pictures are great. The area you took the photos seems really wonderfull. Greets from the german waddensea. Stefan
Definitely got to get myself for to the Wash, my main experience shooting waders has been from hides where obviously you don't ha e a lot of control over the angle!...thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and as for the shark to me it looks like a witches hat 😁
Good call on the witches hat. I didn’t see that one. It’s definitely worth getting to the Wash. The next spring tide is next weekend. I agree hides are difficult - they’re usually designed for bird watchers rather than bird photographers. Thanks for watching.
Hi Scott, Hope you are well. I'm just swinging by your channel to ask you When is your next video dropping? Love your content a lot, especially with macro. I have adapted and learnt a lot from you. Thank you again!
Hi. Thanks for swinging by. Next vid is wildlife and it should drop on Sunday. Then it will be macro the next weekend hopefully. I’m working on a vid about every 2 weeks at the moment.
Hi David. Good stuff. I hope you enjoy it. Go to Snettisham RSPB nature reserve. You’ve got a spring tide on 8th, 9th, and 10th October. High tides at 8:06, 8:47 and 9:31 on those days. Leave at least an hour, preferably 2 or more, to get from the car park to find your spot. There’ll be loads of other bird watchers and photographers there, so getting there early means you can claim a good spot. If you’re going there on other days it will still be good but much less likely that you’ll get those big clouds of birds. On the weekends before and after this, the high tide will be 2 metres lower than the spring tide.
